Chapter 277: The New Replaces the Old

Chapter 277: The New Replace the Old

"The years....... ”

"Whitebeard" Edward Newgate, sitting in the captain's room, carrying a huge flask, after taking a sip of wine, gently put the latest "World Economic News" on the table, sighing.

Although the navy and the world government, which were the first to receive the news, did not want to make a noise, the fall of the "Golden Lion" Shiki in the East China Sea was still exposed by the "World Economic News".

In this, Laura Louise made a big effort, she did not immediately publish the news about William after returning from the East China Sea to the great voyage, because she also knew that although William's story at this time was twists and turns enough, and his birth in the East China Sea was also innovative enough to be in the newspaper, in front of a big newspaper like the "World Economic News", he was not enough to make headlines as a "poor country" news figure in the East China Sea.

Laura Louise knew about the Golden Lion and she was betting that the winner would be William, and she won the bet.

When Laura Louise learned the news of the defeat of the Golden Lion Shiki from her ears and eyes in the East China Sea, she immediately handed over the relevant information about William to her editor-in-chief, along with the news that the "Golden Lion" Shiki had landed in the East China Sea but was defeated by the locals.

Who is "Golden Lion" Shiki?

He is a pirate who has been as famous as "One Piece" Roger, "Whitebeard" Edward and others, among them, Roger, who opened the era of pirates, is the most well-known pirate, it can be said that everyone knows it, it is a legend that has passed away, and Edward is known as the strongest man in the world today, and he is a legend who is still alive in the present.

Although "Golden Lion" Shiji has disappeared in the eyes of the world for many years, his escape from the big prison into the city was still widely reported by various media, and there was a lot of uproar.

The death of such a character at the hands of an unknown person in the East China Sea, as Doflamingo said, is indeed a big joke to the world, and at the same time a big news enough to make the headlines of any newspaper.

Louise's editor-in-chief immediately took her news and published it, explaining in detail how Shiki arrived in the East China Sea and who defeated him at a time when the major forces had only received a little rumor and had no understanding of the parties and the course of events.

Before this, even the Navy Headquarters did not have William's detailed information, and through the spread of the "World Economic News", William, who originally had many fame only in the East China Sea, became famous in one fell swoop.

The newspaper that Edward "Whitebeard" put down was the latest issue to carry the news of Shiki's death.

On the cover, there is a line of headlines written in bold font, which looks a little sensational - a new era is coming!

Below the title, there is a sideways photo of the upper body of two men, the man on the left has long hair hanging down to the waist, wearing a loose kimono, with a thin beard on his face, the overall appearance is a little sloppy, with a cigar in his mouth, his eyelids are slightly shrugged, and his expression is unruly and arrogant, as if he is looking at the person in the photo opposite with contempt, and the most striking place is the top of his head, where there is a rudder.

This photo belonging to the "Golden Lion" Shiki is black and white, just like a posthumous photo.

On the right, facing the "Golden Lion" Shiji, is a photo of a young man, he has short blond hair, is combed into a big back, wearing a straight dress, one hand falls on the hilt of the sword above the oblique finger, looking heroic, and his face is cold, his eyes are square, as if he is staring at Shiji in front of him.

The person in this photo, naturally, is William, and unlike the photo of "Golden Lion" Shiki, it is in color.

One black and white, one color, these two photos alone can attract the reader's attention and embellish the subject.

At the bottom of the photos of the two men, their achievements and ages are listed.

The age is actually what caused Edward the "Whitebeard" to sigh.

He not only lamented William's youth, but also lamented Shiji's old age, and before he knew it, their generation was already more than seventy years old.

Edward, who has been at sea for decades, knows very well that at sea, if a newcomer wants to get ahead, he must step on those old people who have been famous for a long time, and the fame of the newcomer is obtained step by step.

Sooner or later, someone whose deeds of Edward's generation have been passed down by the world will also become such an "old man", but Edward didn't expect this day to come so quickly.

He didn't like Shiji at all, but he was still a little sad, because he knew that Shiki was not only defeated by the little ghost named "William", but also by time, and his white beard was also helpless in the face of the aging brought about by time.

A young nurse came out of nowhere and came to Edward Whitebeard, who was tall among ordinary people, but in front of Whitebeard, who was like a little giant, and even though the latter was now sitting in a chair, the nurse still had to raise her head to barely make eye contact with him.

The young nurse tilted her head and crossed her hands on her hips, staring at the wine jug in Edward the Whitebeard, not at all afraid of the old man's title of "the strongest in the world", but said angrily: "Captain, the doctor has obviously said that you will drink less in the future!"

Edward disagreed, glancing at the nurse, "You kid know what, for pirates, wine is a cure for all diseases. ”

"If you are disobedient like this, your body will deteriorate," the little nurse gestured with her teeth and claws, as if this would scare the person in front of her, "At that time, it will not just be as simple as taking medicine, but may also have infusions every day!"

"I can't drink alcohol, I eat a lot of medicine like a meal, I hang a hanging bottle everywhere, and I linger on the sickbed...... ," Edward pursed his lips and poured another sip of wine into his mouth, "This is not the choice that my 'Whitebeard' would make if I was careful and fearful for the sake of a small life." ”

……

The female nurse finally failed to take the flask from Edward Whitebeard, although she seemed to be a good talker, and she was not angry because of the nurse's disrespectful tone, but Edward the Whitebeard was the man known as "the strongest in the world" after all, what he didn't want to do, there were few people in this world who could force him, and a little nurse was naturally even more impossible.

In the end, she could only angrily take away the garbage from Edward the Beard's desk, and take the newspaper that could be seen at a glance and caused Edward the Whitebeard to sigh with her.

The nurse went out a little fast, and almost bumped into a fat figure, she hurriedly took two steps back.

"Is something wrong with Daddy's body?" the man asked in a deep voice, not moving.

The nurse's little face frowned, tilted her head, and recognized it for a few seconds, before she found a vague impression of the man in front of her who was said to have been on the ship for many years, but was not outstanding at all: "Okay, I'm still secretly drinking, Ti, Ti ......." ”

"Titch!" said Marshall the Blackbeard. D. Titch smiled good-naturedly and didn't seem to be angry that the nurse didn't remember his name.
